Forgiveness is really just letting go. It's saying "you hurt me, but I'm not going to dwell on it or blame you for it anymore". It doesn't mean forgetting, MWD makes that point in DR. It also doesn't mean some big speech needs to be made. It's a state of mind, you can forgive someone without ever saying a word to them. This is often the case with WAS's, the LBS doesn't need to verbally forgive them because the WAS doesn't think they wronged the LBS anyway.
